More About This Olive Oil

Finca la Torre is regarded as one of the best producers of premium olive oil. These cold-pressed EVOOs are complex and exceptionally smooth. All of Finca la Torre’s production is made with early harvest olive so this is very high polyphenol olive oil.
The farm is located in the heart of Andalucía near Malaga, where estate manager Victor Serrano carefully tends the organic and biodynamic groves and year after year produces olive oil that wins gold in the most prestigious competitions all over the world.
